Arvind Kejriwal should be called ‘controversywal’: Bharatiya Janata Party

Attacking Arvind Kejriwal, Bharatiya Janata Party national spokesperson M J Akbar said, he had become a little addicted to making allegations

‘I sometimes think that Kejriwal and controversy are made for each other. If you see Arvind Kejriwal’s behaviour from the very beginning, he has been moving forward by giving birth to a controversy every day. If Kejriwal can be called controversywal, then it would not be bad,’ Union Minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi said. (Reuters)

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Friday dubbed Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal as “controversywal”, accusing him of creating controversies over the issue of posting of officials and using it as “diversionary tactic” to prepare himself to “run away” from his responsibilities.

The party also said that Arvind Kejriwal had become a little addicted to making allegations which have absolutely no truth in them, as the Delhi government led by him had nothing to show in its 100 days of being in power.

“I sometimes think that Kejriwal and controversy are made for each other. If you see Arvind Kejriwal’s behaviour from the very beginning, he has been moving forward by giving birth to a controversy every day. If Kejriwal can be called controversywal, then it would not be bad,” Union Minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi said.

He was speaking at #Modi365, a conclave organised by CNN IBN to mark a year of BJP government in office and was replying to a question in which Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government’s has alleged that LG and the Centre were not allowing them to work as they were trying to clean the “transfer posting industry” that has flourished in the power corridors.

“He (Kejriwal) will create a new story every day and runs away. He had started with hit and run…level allegations against somebody and then ran away.

“By creating such controversies, he wants to run away from the responsibility he has. He wants to make controversies his shield and run away from the responsibilities given to him by the people,” Naqvi said.

Attacking Kejriwal, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national spokesperson M J Akbar said, he had become a little addicted to making allegations which have absolutely no truth in them…These are a part of a pattern of seeking confrontation with just about everyone.

“When a politician has no options left on issues of governance, they use such diversionary tactics and one of such diversionaery tactic of Delhi government is to seek confrontation with everyone and quarrels at the drop of a comment,” Akbar said.

He said the problem was that Kejriwal’s 100 days are nearing and they do not have anything to show and “it has become his habit of fighting.”

“After coming to power, Kejriwal is acting in childish manner which shows that he cannot fulfil the promises made to the people neither today nor in the next five years and hence he is creating new controversies and preparing to leave the Government on the pretext of constitutional crisis,” Delhi BJP chief Satish Upadhyay said.

Making it a direct confrontation with the Modi government, Kejriwal has accused it of “back-stabbing” the people of the city by issuing a notification “siding” with the Lt Governor to run Delhi through “backdoor” and protect the corrupt.

Kejriwal’s frontal attack on the Centre came following the gazette notification by the Home Ministry giving absolute powers to the LG in appointment of bureaucrats and clarifying that he need not “consult” the chief minister on subjects like police and public order.

Kejriwal, who has been involved in a bitter fight with Lt Governor Najeeb Jung over transfer and postings of bureaucrats, said the notification showed the nervousness of the BJP and the Centre over the anti-corruption efforts by his government.

It is not about what you can call Mr. Arvind Kejrewal. It is what a deadly lethal poison of the big eagles and hawks can make out of genuine people. I guess the BJP gets what I am talking about. Let him do his job in peace and get your dirty politics out as you are already thrown out of Delhi. Soon the nation will have a choice. I am looking forward to a continuous commitment and never give up atude from Kejrewal.

Why elect a government by the people and then say some nominated person called 'Jung' has all the powers ? Modi is taking a merciless beating on this. He and his team who are taking pot shots at AAP (Shri Arun Jaitley and others) are looking ridiculous each time they open their mouth to comment. India's intelligentsia are mostly on the side of AAP in this argument. But even though BJP supporter, sitting in BJP offices may write as many comments in broken English to disparage AAP, we the people know that AAP is trying to eradicate corruption and BJP is confused as to how to handle the situation. I don't think the BJP leadership is corrupt, but they don't want to yield the high ground to AAP. All I can say is for sake of 'India' , BJP please do the right thing. Let the AAP government that was elected by the people, do their work. If the British era consution is the cause of the problem, let it be known that we the younger generation want a consution that is our own and reflects our views and not a copy of the British consution that aided the British to rule the Indian mes. Change the consution that is now being used by parties in power and kala sahibs to subjugate the Indian mes. Change the British based consution now !

I wonder, why people are wasting their valuable time on the problems created by Kejriwal. He is a CERTIFIED CHEAT/LAIR.Why he is not filing FIRs against Sheila Dik/ Gadkari. Against whom he used to say that he is having lots of doents regarding corruption. He is a ANARCHIST. So neglect his all statement.

It is true that Mr Kejriwal is not serious about his responsiblities as CM of Delhi and always looking for faults of somebody and pointing non existing matters .He is not having a single achivement to show in his 100 days of rule except the subsidy on ellectricity and water causing lose to Govt i.e Tax payers pocket.The Centre should view it seriously and give notice to his Govt under Article 355 and should not hesitate to dismiss his Govt in the interest of upholding Consution and to save Delhi people.

Why he should be ... he is controversywal. There is nothing wrong with this. He doesn't accept the Indian Consution. As he got majority ...that is why nothing can be implemented on him. He thinks he has become super power of the country and he started thinking Delhi is a separate country and he is the king of that country.

Arvind Kejriwal is a little addicted to making allegations which have absolutely no truth , as the Delhi government led by him have nothing to show in its 100 days of being in power. Delhi y should be dissolved, president rule be imposed & fresh election be held with no freebies promises.
